About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Ole Pole Barn at Dry Creek Hideaways

We are approximately 11 miles from Chattanooga, TN, but also are located even closer to many dining establishments, movie theatre, bowling alley, supermarkets and golf courses.  While it is nice being close to everything, it is always pleasant when you come in after a busy day to a peaceful sanctuary and this is what you'll find taking a short piece down a private drive to a gated entrance that opens up to two homes on almost 4 acres that are nestled between the trees.  
The Ole Pole Barn been remodeled into a cozy cabin for two in a private park-like setting.  Enjoy the large deck and if it starts to rain, grab the umbrella and go the patio to listen to the sound of rain on the tin roof.  Your cabin also has a park grill in front of the deck. The cabin is equipped with 2 Roku Smart TV's, fully equipped kitchen, washer, dryer and more.

In the common area, there are picnic tables, a park grill, swing and a firepit with wood supplied. There are corn hole boards and bags available upon request. 


We do live on the property and there is a 10' x 20' movie screen with drive-in movie speakers. On occasion we do show movies and guests are free to join at no charge. If you have your own projector that has sound, you are more than welcome to use the movie screen. We have a table or tripod available for use upon request.

We have just renovated a building on the property that was made of windows and doors with glass. It has been repurposed into a studio with the intention of having painting classes for guests in the future. In the meantime, our guests can visit "Windows into Creation," and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea in the sitting area with the outdoor views all around, but still in that perfect temperature.

We are pet friendly, limit 2; dogs only, with pet fee of $35.00 for the first pet and $15.00 for the second.  Please let us know if you are bringing your fur babies.
**We do have a $500.00 deposit fee that is fully refundable if no damages are incurred.**


KNOW BEFORE YOU BOOK and this is WHY: 
We want our guests to be happy and that our photos and description be representative of where you will stay and what to expect, if any of the things listed below are something that would cause you not to enjoy your visit, then we had rather for you to continue looking to find that perfect getaway and thank you for looking at our place:
The private drive that brings you to our property is about a tenth of a mile; with private being said, this is not a road kept up by the county so is a little rough, but not a problem for most cars unless they are extremely low to the ground. On the good side of this, this keeps most people off our little road and adds to the privacy you'll find when you get back here.
Note that the barn has a tin roof without an attic, so when it rains hard, it does get pretty loud.

Being beside Choo Choo (Chattanooga) city, there is a train crossing about a mile from the property, so if you're outside you will hear the trains blowing.  You will hear the train from inside the Ole Pole Barn, but for most, it is not so loud that it is bothersome.  We provide fans for those who like the white noise.

Basic paper products are provided to get you started on your trip; however, guests are responsible for any toiletry, paper product needs (aside from coffee filters) during your stay.  We provide liquid soap at all sinks during your entire stay.  Shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, toothpaste, toothbrush and lotion are available upon request: if you would like these to be available when you arrive, please let us know.
If this property is booked for your dates, please check out the other rental on this same property under ID #3123157.

Peaceful
The Ole Pole Barn was exactly as described! Peaceful and relaxing, didn’t even feel like you were staying on some one’s property. The setting is beautiful and relaxing. April and Robert made it feel like how I treat my family when they come for a visit! Close to everything we wanted to do. Definitely want to visit again and have already told my friends and family about it! Everything from booking to checking in and out was made easier with their communication.

Cozy getaway
Enjoyed the amazing hospitality and looking forward to staying here again. Robert and April were great hosts, and we enjoyed the relaxing and quiet time on the porch. This little gem is just far enough from Chattanooga allowing us to enjoy the city life and attractions of Chattanooga, while offering a cozy getaway for some much needed relaxation.

Old Pole Barn = a “MUST HAVE” Retreat in Chattanooga, Tennessee
Our eight day stay at the Old Pole Barn was SO wonderful, it’s hard to find all the right words to describe it. You’d be hard pressed to find a “neater”, “kooler”, greater, etc place to stay In Chattanooga, especially if you’d like to feel you are in the country - but yet the city is only minutes away. And, our hosts were the absolute “Best of the Best” of any we’ve had in 48 years of travel. We hope we will always be able to stay at The Ole Pole Barn when we come to Chattanooga.

Best Stay Ever!
My husband and I have stayed at several vrbos over the years - but we have NEVER stayed in one that made us feel so much like we were already home! It was definitely the cleanest vrbo - and had everything we could possibly need for our stay - already in the home. I was so relaxed there - the bed was even MORE comfortable than our bed at home! We met the property owner - and it was like we had known him all our lives. He and his wife have a beautiful home - it's just like a little slice of heaven. I wish we could have stayed longer. If we ever visit that area again - we will definitely stay there if its available. Thank you so much for giving us such a warm welcome and sharing your home with us. :)

Weekend get-away
What a gem! We were in Tennessee to visit a couple of amazing state parks. This property was a perfect spot to stay. We were about an hour from both Savage Gulf and Fall Creek Falls State Park. After adventuring we went into Chattanooga for dinner. The Ole Pole Barn has everything you need for comfort, and it's super clean. We will be back!!

Clean, beautiful little cabin
Place was just as described. Clean, comfortable, stocked with utensils for cooking. Cook books and things you might need.(flashlights, dog bowls, games, movies). Great for relaxing after a day out exploring the area. Rock City, Ruby Falls and Chattanooga a short drive away. Minutes from a Target and Walmart. Very quiet area. Loved our stay, will definitely book here again.

Exceptional! All other vrbo's will fail in comparison.
The Ole Pole Barn was absolutely exceptional. Immaculately clean, well-stocked, super-comfortable bed, very pet friendly, friendly hosts. There was absolutely nothing I would change about this property. There were so many details that the hosts provided that we might have taken for granted had we not travelled to another location the next day and realized how much we missed the Ole Pole Barn. The kitchen was stocked with essentials and was very organized and clean. We wanted for nothing. Loved the bowl of fresh fruit too! The bed was more comfortable than our sleepnumber bed at home. There were 2 outdoor spaces for relaxing which were perfect. We also had perfect weather, so we loved sitting on the deck under the beautiful acorn tree. The property was lovely and had a fenced area for our dogs to roam off leash. The hosts provided 3 separate areas for pet waste/poo bags and these were solar lit, so no fumbling around at night if you left a poo bag in the house. The hosts live on the property and said hello and chatted, but were never intrusive. We will definitely be back when we visit family in Chattanooga!

Beautiful, peaceful retreat
Exactly what we were looking for! Quiet, serene place at the end of a dead end street. Short gravel road, but gave us no problem. The converted pole barn was a beautiful retreat with a mix of the old and new. Updated kitchen and bath with a cottage feel. The shutter wall and beautiful room screen gave plenty of privacy for the King size bed. Perfect place for a couple. Basic necessities were provided as well as a welcome bowl of fruits! The glass window building was a beautiful sanctuary where they are teaching art classes. And there is an outdoor movie screen complete with speakers and a fire pit! We got to sit down with our hosts and talk about classic cars and really enjoyed our stay. Shopping, antique stores, sight seeing and many activities nearby. If you like to sleep late, I would recommend a sleep mask due to light from the upper window, but we are early risers and it was no problem for us. Highly recommend The Ole Pole Barn.
